It is not a report that \"nothing works\". Please paste full error message you get while running the installer. Also see \"sticky\" threads at Linux Specific Issues forum (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/board.php?boardid=41).


Regards.

There is no error  msg. the game IS installed, but i can\'t get it run. i don\'t know the command or how to get it running. can you please give an example. the \"run\" command doesn\'t work. it says \"unknown command.\" probably it can be run via KDE via a doubleclick. but that doesn\'t work as well. is there something mission on my pc. I have FEDORA CORE 4 installed.

After you install the game you have to run it as /the/path/to/ps/dir/updater --auto
and then /the/path/to/ps/dir/psclient that\'s all.

Low FPS

[root@localhost ~]# fglrxinfo
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: http://www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.2.1)

can\'t see the ATI driver... Only Mesa is used. I found solutions for this problems but only for Xfree, not for Xorg

I don\'t know if ATI but when you are installing Nvidia driver you have to after
installation edit xorg.conf, you should have it somewhere in README file which
should come with your drivers.
